Verdict

Mutanaaseq has won twice over 7f this year while both of Rainbow Rain’s wins so far came on fast going. Spartan Fighter hasn’t won on Turf since 2019 while Bryce has yet to win anywhere and Wade's Magic is preferred. But CHATTEL VILLAGE is creeping closer as he slides down the weights and posted a better effort over track and trip last time.
